A SOLDIER`S WIFE... by Marian Finch

Hello there my darling
I'm here to spend some time with you...
I miss you oh, so very much
I'm learning what to do
I brought someone with me today
Someone for you to meet..
Your son ... our precious angel

He's a good boy, and so sweet ...
You didn't get a chance to meet him
You were fighting in Iraq
They told me I had lost you...
That you were never coming back ..

He looks just like you, honey!
He has your nose and ears..
And eyes that look so much like yours..
It fills my eyes with tears..
We have pictures of you everywhere
So that he can see your handsome face

I'll tell him daddy was a hero
And never can be replaced..
I know that you can see us...
As I lie here close to you..
I know you will watch over me..
Our baby David too..
I know we had a name picked out..
I know that we agreed.
But now you`re gone from our life
It became something that I need..
What else could I do..
My soulmate, my hero husband..
But name him after you.
